Hi everyone,
We are working on making it easier to use Wikidata's data to build
applications. A big part of that is a better API. Over the past months
we have been developing the first version and gotten testing and
feedback for it. Last week we made it available on
test.wikidata.org.
Today the first version of the new Wikibase REST API is available on
Wikidata. I'd like to thank everyone who helped along the way by
providing feedback and testing.
You can find more information on what you can already do with the new
Wikibase REST API at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:REST_API.
We will continue to build out its functionality and your input on what
would be most useful for you will help prioritize the next steps.
Please leave your thoughts at

Cheers
Lydia
